Kudos to @presentt who led the charge, and all co-authors @louiseleakey@CarrieMongle (and other not on X) who contributed to this wonderful project! It has been a long time in the making! We found the material back in 2012! Honored to be part of it.
Have you ever wished there was a way to associate fossil teeth with postcranial material? Like, maybe they should have a similar chemical signature if they fossilized together? π§
Happy to have a played a small role in this cool project led by @presentt!

Huge amount of money but not exorbitant. For perspective, early stage pre-clinical trials in biotech often cost several times more. To me, this kind of price tag is a statement of the scale of the problem weβre facing and working to solve.
If we want to track the result of an ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) for ocean COβ removal (CDR), a tracer release followed by continuous survey for ~3 weeks is reasonable. To do so from a suitable ship (day rate $50k/day) will cost $1 million for just 20 days of ship time.
@EvaLScheller I know!! I think it might be useful for editing drafts rather than writing them, cause itβs very bad at content you donβt tell it hahaβ but βrewrite this to includeβ¦β is easier to dictate than to do
don't bother hiring me... Artificial Intelligence Yoda writes a better abstract

An excellent 2-day @Caltech GPS field trip led by @presentt in the mountain ranges surrounding the LA basin. Lots of neat geology and an awesome get-together for 1st year @CaltechSeismo grad students.
The monsoon season has come to the Southwest again. But just as their understanding of the phenomena becomes more clear, itβs starting to disappear. Via @highcountrynews: https://t.co/gQaCpe5om2
BREAKINGπ₯: Los Angeles has just proposed an outright citywide ban on oil drilling in a new draft ordinance announced this morning by Los Angeles City Planning.
If you carbonate (yes that's a verb!), consider submitting an abstract to our AGU session "Carbonate Sediments Through Time..." This is the same famous and successful session that has been chaired by @lizzy_t, @presentt, Kristin Bergmann, and Leye Odeboye but under new management
If you're at #Goldschmidt2022 I'll be sharing the first look at our Ordovician-Silurian boron isotope record at 10:15HST/21:15BST and talking about what it tells us about ocean pH and atmospheric CO2! https://t.co/Osa0WTgG1k
